We had documented that we support `git.auto-local-bookmark` but we
don't. The documentation has been incorrect since d9c68e08b1. This
patch fixes it by adding support for `git.auto-local-bookmark` with
fallback to the old/current `git.auto-local-branch`.
.
The doc says --remote "shows all tracking and non-tracking remote bookmarks
belonging to this remote." Suppose --remote=<remote> is a name pattern like
"*@<remote>", it doesn't make sense that "jj bookmark list --remote=<remote>"
includes local-only refs (whose "<name>" doesn't match the pattern.)
The "--remote=<remote> --tracked" combination is still valid to exclude
remote-only (i.e. untracked) refs.
Jujutsu's branches do not behave like Git branches, which is a major
hurdle for people adopting it from Git. They rather behave like
Mercurial's (hg) bookmarks.
We've had multiple discussions about it in the last ~1.5 years about this rename in the Discord,
where multiple people agreed that this _false_ familiarity does not help anyone. Initially we were
reluctant to do it but overtime, more and more users agreed that `bookmark` was a better for name
the current mechanism. This may be hard break for current `jj branch` users, but it will immensly
help Jujutsu's future, by defining it as our first own term. The `[experimental-moving-branches]`
config option is currently left alone, to force not another large config update for
users, since the last time this happened was when `jj log -T show` was removed, which immediately
resulted in breaking users and introduced soft deprecations.
This name change will also make it easier to introduce Topics (#3402) as _topological branches_
with a easier model.
This was mostly done via LSP, ripgrep and sed and a whole bunch of manual changes either from
me being lazy or thankfully pointed out by reviewers.
